  1. Do we really need to go there?
  2. There's also people out there who expect the reporter to tell us everything, sources and what not. That's a quick path to career suicide.
  3. Journalist/reporter and messageboard poster. I'm not convinced that someone can actually pull off both roles at the same time unless anonymity is involved in the latter.
  4. That nickname is going to need some serious work.
  5. I'm listening to the Instigators right now for the first time in a long time. Craig Rivet with a really crappy internet connection is an interesting step up from his usual self.
  6. Another attempted joke? The only way it can possibly work is if that hands on coach only focuses on the NHL side of things, focusing on the players of that level. He then needs to be on the same page with the developmental guys and trust their evaluation of the prospects. So yeah, it really comes down entirely to your last sentence. He's going to need a good group around him so it will be very interesting to listen to the next wave of hire over the upcoming weeks.
  7. Is this a serious question? Every single team in the league.
  8. Not that I disagree with you, but there is not a GM in this league who is scouting all of the leagues out there. That's why they have a scouting staff.
  9. Better check the old prison wallets before that hug.
  10. And if nothing else, bodies always get moved around after a GM change. So we at least have something interesting to look out for.
  11. It's not like there was a great option, but we did just keep the guy who refused to play Skinner with Eichel.
  12. No, he's asking about the beer guy. And John Adams was a former Sabre draft pick, not a revolutionary.
  13. I don't know how I'd call it too late. The official offseason is going to start at some undetermined point in the future. As long as they did this before that, it's definitely not too late.
  14. That has to be an interim GM tag for Adams, right?
  15. Two first time hires, two failed GMs. I know it's not that simple and that's not yet a pattern, but I really hope they go with someone with NHL experience in a GM role with the next hire. It's not working, time to mix it up. Edit: And immediately after posting this, I see Brawndo's thread and the Sabres' twitter post. I really hope that's an interim tag.
  16. Neighborhood facebook page bitchfest incoming! I've got the popcorn ready.
  17. I caught bits and pieces of each movie in the Star Wars trilogy over the course of the day. I really miss the original versions. Every single addition they made in the 90s re-release sticks out like a sore thumb. And I’m not even talking about the greedo shot first stuff,you can’t randomly insert 90s graphics into a 70s movie and expect it to look right.
  18. Our ducks are back, so those babies from the other day weren’t from our yard.
  19. I was thinking the same exact thing in terms of TBD being something like this board x50 or 100. That said, the quality of discussion around this place has degraded heavily over recent years. I blame that almost completely on the team.
  20. All I can picture is our season being derailed by a blown achilles.
  21. I'll stick with music but move away from bands: Beet oven
  22. Everyone knows there are maybe 5-10 of them tops.
  23. I regret not responding with "Lexus makes vans now?". That would have been so much better.
